“…Vagal sensory fibers innervate the majority of the viscera with free nerve terminals. Electron microscopy of these 1–2 micro-thick fiber terminals are densely packed with mitochondria, but lack overt ER-like structures (Hung et al, 1973; Kikuchi, 1976; Neuhuber, 1987; von During and Andres, 1988). Despite these reports, we found evidence of a functional ER at vagal nerve growth cone/neurites.…”

“…However it is becoming increasingly clear that mitochondrial ROS play critical roles in physiological signaling downstream of multiple pathways [123], including hypoxia [124, 125], TNFα [126], neurotrophins via p75NTR [127], Toll-like Receptors [128, 129] and TGFβ [130]. Importantly, afferent terminals innervating the peripheral tissue, including the airways, are densely packed with mitochondria [131133]. Thus both mitochondria and afferent receptors are co-localized.…”

“…The peripheral nerve terminals of vagal airway sensory fibers are densely packed with mitochondria [5153]. Mitochondria can also be observed in axonal terminals of vagal neurons in long-term culture [54].…”
